Zoe Son is a Korean character artist whose work reimagines mythical animals through a lens of unique artistry and emotional resonance. Selected as one of the 161 featured artists at Bangkok Illustration Fair 2024—representing Korea on a truly international platform—Zoe brings narrative depth, elegance, and innovation to contemporary illustration.
Drawing from rich folklore and zodiac traditions, her signature IPs such as “Mongryong: Mythical Animals,” “Twelve Twelve,” and “Hide and Seek” transform ancient symbolism into fresh, art-infused character design. These works reflect her philosophy: “Be Unique!” —an ode to breaking artistic conventions by weaving creativity into everyday visual storytelling.
